During the week of September 12th through September 17th 2016, cyclists, engineers and enthusiasts from around the world gathered in the dry lake beds of the Nevada desert in a quest to break the human-powered land speed record on State Route 305 outside of Battle Mountain, Nevada.

During this event the overall speed record was reset to 89.59 MPH (144.17 KPH), by Todd Reichert of Team Aerovelo.
